Are you in Hong Kong this weekend? You could join the Asia chapter of the Asian American Journalists Association for the third-annual regional conference. Lots of great speakers and topics — including a pitch session for your start-up idea.
If you’re not able to be here in person, you can watch a live-stream.
Hope you’ll participate, in person or online!
UNITY Journalists Seeks New Executive Director
Do you have nonprofit management experience and a proven track record of fundraising and coalition building?
UNITY: Journalists for Diversity is hiring. Come work with an organization that advocates for media diversity on behalf of the Asian American Journalists Association, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, the Native American Journalists Association and the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association.
Final countdown for the 2012 AAJA Men of Broadcast calendar: It’s the bonus month of January 2013, featuring Kenny Choi, Anish Shroff, Sean Dobie and Frank Buckley.
AAJA doesn’t have a full 2013 calendar for sale, so you should check out the nice work of Native American Journalists Association photographers.
And you can help AAJA any day of the year by making a tax-deductible contribution.
Happy 2013!
Ask Not What AAJA Can Do For You ...
New AAJA President Paul Cheung needs our support:
Today, I’m asking for you to help me inspire the next generations of journalists.For $1 or 2 a week ($50 to $100 a year), you could help inspire a young person of color to fulfill the dream of becoming a journalist?
What if, for that same $1 or $2 a week, you could help to ensure fair and accurate news coverage of minorities in America?
It’s the season to give thanks, so to close my 2011-12 term as president of the Asian American Journalists Association, I will be counting down December with a daily shout-out.
Day 31
And finally: Thank you to all 1,700-plus members of AAJA Nation. Together, we will continue to advance our mission of news diversity. I’ll see you Aug. 21-24 for an “AAJA State of Mind” at our 2013 national convention.
